LCD SOUNDSYSTEM

[What with the shocking (shocking, I say!) death of Anna Nicole Smith, the astronaut-in-a-diaper saga, and ten feet of lake-effect snow in upstate New York, it's no wonder that I couldn't find the time to post music yesterday. The Religious Right obviously has it wrong. It's not the secular queers that are destroying America; it's the 24-hour cable news channels. Too bad it's not Rupert Murdoch's death we're celebrating today.]

LCD SOUNDSYSTEM will release their new album, SOUND OF SILVER, on March 13. I've uploaded the two songs that I kinda/sorta like below, for your aural perusal. Dance, you bastards!

[I also kinda/sorta like the way LCD SOUNDSYSTEM describe their sound: "gay stuff. disco. bored people. a poorly executed fist-fight. sandwiches without too much meat and stuff on them. records that you used to hate but are kind of cool now that you heard them again years later at your friends house. hipster nonsense. midrange, and not so much bass-and-treble. an engine that needs the timing looked at and is running at capacity. a band."]
